Introduction Thanks for stopping by! Join me as I write about the joys, frustrations, triumphs and defeats of training for events, losing weight and nurturing body, mind & spirit for a healthier 'me'. I'm all about the journey and each step along the path holds something worth examining. I'm a chubby 47 year old with athletic aspirations. I've completed two half marathons, 5 Sprint triathlons, an 'unofficial' Half Ironman, a couple of Century bike rides and a whole lot in between. With a husband, 2 kids, a full time job and a full life finding time to train, nurture and maintain balance in my life is a huge challenge. Come along for the journey...
